What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Simple Sensations: Ultimate Fudge! My mother taught we well on this recipe. Her secret was to “stir it until your arm falls off!” You see, stirring makes it extremely melt-in-your-mouth creamy. And if you try to cut corners, it’ll turn out grainy, which is a result of the sugar not dissolving under heat. I discovered another tip when making fudge: Do not attempt this on a humid day. I guarantee you, it will be a disaster. Being forewarned…… are you ready, peeps? Read on.
ULTIMATE FUDGE
Ingredients:
3 cups sugar
3/4 cup butter
2/3 cup evaporated milk
12-ounces semi-sweet chocolate morsels
1 teaspoon vanilla
7-ounce jar marshmallow creme
Instructions:
Combine butter, sugar, and milk in a 2-quart pan. Bring to full rolling boil, stirring constantly. Continue boiling over medium heat for four minutes. Stir constantly to prevent scorching. Be sure to scrape sides as well. Remove from heat. Work quickly stirring in chocolate morsels until completely melted. Add marshmallow creme and vanilla. Mix well. Pour into greased 9″x13″ pan. Cool at room temperature; cut into squares.
Sounds like something I would love, Gail! Thank you!

I agree about the stirring as I have had “grainy” fudge in the past. We always used mini marshmallows instead of the creme 🙂

Looks delicious.
My mother made a similar fudge the old fashioned way, but she was rather impatient. I joke that I was 16 before I learned one didn’t eat fudge with a spoon…

Recently my husband made his mother’s recipe for fudge. Major fail. Twice. It requires “stirring until your arm falls off.” 🤣

It’s trickier here in Florida. I think the heat and humidity make a difference. 😜🍃
